School Notification of Admission Status
Le Jardin A L’Ouest follows guidelines of the NYC Independent Schools for the notification of
admission status (acceptance, wait-list, refusal):
* January: children already enrolled and Siblings.
* March: new candidates.

Notification letters are mailed through the post office.

Given the limited number of spots in each class, it is not possible to accept every applicant and
therefore we must maintain a waiting list.

Upon acceptance and to guarantee a space, Parents are required to sign the enrollment contract
and remit a non-refundable tuition deposit of three thousand dollars ($3,000).

The tuition balance is payable in two equal sums, April 1st and September 1st.

An extended tuition payment plan is available upon request.

Le Jardin A L’Ouest rejects all discrimination based on gender, race, religion or origin.

A prior knowledge of the French language from the Parent or the Child is not required.

Children must be toilet-trained upon entering school.
